So true!! Not even legal in vintage it's restricted lol

Obviously I know that means it's legal but just adding to your point :P

What makes it so broken?
Something along the lines of this deck:

With this deck, it's very common to turn one  {Time Vault}/ {Voltaic Key} combo, which then locks your opponent of the game
